FP to me, did Avast detect it ?

Hi spywar,

No, it is only Trend Micro that detected it as a riskware: I posted earlier on something similar here: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=90127.0
http://about-threats.trendmicro.com/Malware.aspx?language=au&name=PAK_Generic.001
a FP on a protection packer → http://vms.drweb.com/search/?q=PAK_Generic.001
PAK_Generic.001 is a heuristic detection for possibly malicious executable files that are compressed using Win32 compression tools, the self-extracting zip file is being falsely detected…
